Homeoffice verändert die Wirtschaft
„The Workforce Is About to Change Dramatically – When the pandemic is over, one in six workers is projected to continue working from home or co-working at least two days a week, according to a recent survey by economists at Harvard Business School. Another survey of hiring managers by the global freelancing platform Upwork found that one-fifth of the workforce could be entirely remote after the pandemic. … Since 2000, as spending on travel, food, and entertainment has surged, employment in leisure and hospitality – a large category that covers restaurants, hotels, and amusement parks – has increased three times faster than the rest of the labor force. – But the boom times for this super-sector may be over, according to the economist David Autor, a co-chair of the MIT Task Force on the Work of the Future. In a new paper co-authored with MIT’s Elisabeth Reynolds, he forecasts that the rise of remote work – or what they call ‚telepresence‚ – will lead to a more homebound life that creates less work for others.“

Africa has 16 of the 48 longest-serving leaders in the world, including the world’s longest-serving nonroyal leader, Equatorial Guinea’s Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, who has been in power since 1979. These regimes also share a common feature of gross violations of human rights, including those regarding digital rights and freedom of expression online.“
